AI-Loudener
AI-Loudener harnesses the power of machine learning to make your tracks louder without raising the peak levels. This AI-powered plug-in analyses the audio to set the optimal processing parameters, so all you need to do is choose how loud you want your mix to be.

Machine Learning for Unlocking Unique Possibilities
When developing the DSP algorithms for our plugins, we often come across features or parameters that work really well in some situations, but not in others. Usually features like that don’t make it into the final plug-in, as it needs to work equally well on any material.
This is why we turned our attention to machine learning. If the plug-in can know exactly what it is processing, then we can utilise even the most highly specialised features of our DSP algorithms. The AI series of plug-ins is designed to analyse the input using a system of convolutional neural networks and set up the expanded version of an M-series algorithm to uniquely suit your track.
Upgrade Your Workflow with Superfast AI Processing
The precise AI machine learning technology implemented in AI-Loudener analyses your audio quickly and accurately, enabling you to achieve a faster workflow than ever before.
The plug-in reacts differently to various material you use it on, always adapting its DSP algorithm to suit your sound. This ensures the most transparent loudness without affecting the peak levels, sound quality, or dynamic range of your track.

Sound Examples
Key Features
Drive
“Drive” is the main control of the plug-in. It determines the intensity of the applied processing, allowing you to choose exactly how much you want to boost the loudness of the track.
Learn Processor
“Learn” button enables the plug-in to capture and analyse the input and intelligently set the processing parameters. AI-Loudener will capture 3.5 seconds of audio for the analysis. Make sure to play the loudest and busiest part of your track when learning to get the best results.
Oversampling
“Oversampling” in AI-Loudener effectively reduces aliasing by internally processing audio at a higher sample rate than the host application, with the capability to reach up to 8 times the original sample rate. This advanced feature, located in the main menu of the plug-in, offers you the flexibility to choose from four settings to achieve the desired balance between performance and audio quality: “Off”, “Good (2X)”, “Great (4X)”, or “Ultra (8X)”.
Output Control
“Output” is a transparent gain control applied to the signal after all other processing.
Input-output level meters
Input-Output Level Meters are visual displays that show the audio levels of the input and output signals before and after processing.
Internal On/Off Switch
The plug-in features a dedicated bypass/on control, which allows for the swift enabling or bypassing of the effect. This user-friendly control is designed to help avoid potential clicks or audio artefacts that may occur when toggling the effect on or off directly within the DAW host.
Scalable user interface
AI-Loudener's interface scaling feature lets you adjust GUI size for optimal workflow. Choose from 50% to 150% scaling options to tailor the interface to your preference. Despite scaling, visual quality stays consistent, ensuring clarity. Optimised for high-quality monitors, including retina displays, the plugin maintains its performance across devices.
Undo/redo options
AI-Loudener includes built-in 'Undo' and 'Redo' functions, offering reassurance during audio processing. Easily revert or redo changes, saving time and avoiding potential loss of adjustments. These functions enable experimentation without permanent alterations, enhancing workflow and facilitating informed decision-making in audio production.
Tooltips
AI-Loudener offers tooltips, accessible via the plugin's menu, providing brief descriptions of each UI element when enabled. Tooltips enhance navigation by offering insights into controls and settings, such as function, range, and impact on the audio signal. Enabling tooltips streamlines workflow and facilitates understanding of the plugin's functionality. Simply hover over a control to receive relevant information.
